Our Proven SIL Process – From Planning to Moving In
Advantage Care ensures your SIL journey is smooth and transparent through a clear process:
- Listen and Learn: We understand your goals, routines, and preferences to create a support plan tailored to your life.
- Co-Design and Planning: Together with families and allied professionals, we design a customised SIL plan aligned with your NDIS funding and long-term aspirations.
- Home Matching and Setup: We assist in exploring suitable housing options and compatible housemates through our trusted partner network.
- Transition and Trial Period: Trial shifts allow participants to familiarize themselves with their new setting, ensuring a smooth adjustment.
- Ongoing Review and Support: Regular reviews keep plans aligned with evolving needs, maintaining open communication and continuous improvement.
Collaboration with Property Managers and SDA Providers
We connect suitable participants through our collaborative intake process while ensuring alignment with NDIS and SDA guidelines. Advantage Care partners with landlords, property managers, and Specialist Disability Accommodation providers to make independent living accessible and sustainable.
These partnerships allow us to support inclusive housing, fill vacancies with appropriate participants, and ensure on-site support compliance with NDIS and SDA standards.
Housing That Makes Independence Possible
At Advantage Care, we understand that many people with disabilities face barriers to securing a safe and affordable home, from limited rental history to rising living costs. That’s why we facilitate safe, affordable accommodation alongside our SIL services to give participants a stable base for their supports.
We manage selected homes under the Advantage Care name, making subsidised accommodation immediately available for eligible NDIS participants. Each property includes utilities and internet, reducing out-of-pocket costs. Rent is often covered through the participant’s Housing and Infrastructure Payment (HIP), ensuring accessibility and financial stability while promoting independence.
This housing arrangement is fully separate from SIL services, ensuring participant choice and NDIS compliance. Participants may choose any SIL provider; our housing provides a secure, affordable foundation to thrive.
Benefits of SIL Beyond Daily Care
SIL is not just about personal care, it’s about building confidence, independence, and social inclusion. Participants can engage in local community activities, pursue part-time work or study, and develop meaningful relationships.
By participating in structured routines and supported skill development, individuals gain self-reliance, improving mental wellbeing and overall quality of life.
Supporting Families and Carers
Advantage Care also supports families and carers by reducing stress and providing reassurance. We maintain open channels for updates, involve families in planning, and offer guidance for decision-making. This partnership strengthens trust and ensures consistent, person-centered care.
Families can feel confident that their loved ones are receiving professional, compassionate support while pursuing independence in safe environments.
Local Community Integration
We help participants connect with their local communities across Victoria, including Melbourne, Wyndham, Tarneit, and Werribee. From attending community centres to joining hobby clubs or local events, Advantage Care encourages active participation and inclusion.
Community integration enhances social skills, reduces isolation, and provides opportunities for skill development and meaningful engagement.
